Influenster J'adore VoxBox Unboxing & Review

Ta Da! I give you the much awaited, much anticipated J'adoreVoxBox! !! It just screams "open me! I'm filled with exciting products!"

Before we get to what lies within, let me give those of you who don't know what a VoxBox is here is the rundown.

Influenster is an online community where bloggers, consumers, anyone can join. It's all about writing product reviews, take photos, answer questions and generally promote products you love through social media. Once you join you get tasks to do (surveys, reviews, pictures, sharing pages). You get badges in the areas you know most about and if you get your scores high enough you may or may not qualify to get a VoxBox. Its not qualify for aranteed that you will receive a box but that certainly doesn't mean you shouldn't try!

I was sent these products free compliments of Influenster for review purposes. All opinions are my own.

Oh such a fantastic mix of goodies!!

Hersheys Kisses family size bag - $5.29 value === Is there really even a need to review these, cause if you haven't had a Hershey kiss then you have been under a rock for a loooong time. Pretty to look at and so good to eat. Its chocolate.... no further explanation needed.

Red Rose Simply Indulgent Tea - Retail value $4.49 for 20 count box --- Even though I don't drink tea often, I absolutely love it. This tea was really nice. It smells amazing and is perfect for breakfast! Doesn't really even need sweetener. The only complaint I have though is its a bit to weak for my taste. I like a more robust flavor personally. If you are like me, I suggest using two bags instead of one!

Vaseline Men's Spray Lotion- $7.99 retail value --- Not everyone who got this box received this product but, since my husband agreed to test, I did! He said it works really well. It isn't greasy of thick and it doesn't have the alcohol type burn of usual lotions. The smell is also really nice and lasted most of the day and a workout at the gym!

Boots Botanics Shine Away Ionic Clay mask - $9.39 retail value ---I have issues finding a good clay mask that will work well on my sensative skin. For years, I've used the same brand but after using this, I may just have to switch! It seemed really watery at first so I shook it up a bit and then tried it. It's a fantastic consistency. Not thick and spreads out well. Didn't irritate my skin and dried super fast. Easy to was off and left my face ridiculously soft!!

John Freida Frizz Ease 3 Day Straight Flat Iron Spray _ $9.99 retail value --- As a hairstylist, I have certain standards on haircare products. I am always doubtful about brands I can buy at any big box store. Although this product worked well for the first day, my super super fine crazy wavey hair began to curl back up on day two. I don't doubt it will work for others, but on my hairtype it was a bust. however I am fond of the smell and it isn't heavy or oily so thats a plus!

KISS Looks So Natural lashes - $3.99 retail value --- firstly, I have the shakiest hands ever so i generally avoid false lashes. They also annoy the holy crap out of me when i do manage to get them on. These were so much better than the other ones I have used. The tapered shape and lash count, for once, didnt look like i had spiders on my eyes. Had some trouble with application, but thats just my awful hands shaking so thats on me, not the product itself. If you need just a touch of drama for your eyes, these are perfect

! Subtle and natural looking!

So there you have it! This was my 2nd voxbox and it completly rocked. A huge thanks to Influenster for selecting me for this box! Hopefully I will qualify for another box soon so i can discover and share more amazing brands and prodects with you all!!
